Energy Audit for „Non SMEs“

The obligation of implementing an energy audit according to DIN EN 16247 – 1 was established to support the achievement of agreed EU - climate goals. However, the short-term introduction of this requirement in 2015 and the delayed legislation led to considerable time pressure in the first audits - on the side of the non-SME as well as on the side of responsible auditors.

The actual purpose of the audit, the identification of actual efficiency measures and their implementation, was often neglected for reasons of time. Therefore the meaningfulness of auditing processes is doubted, although the instrument provides added value if the overall approach is adjusted in optimal orientation.

Both during a first audit and a repeat audit after four years, we plan an optimal and efficient approach with you. Of course we accompany you during implementation, for best possible realisation of reasonable and sustainable economic efficiency measures. That way the obligation of auditing processes transforms into maximum benefit, therefore the audit report doesn‘t only comply legal requirements.

Out of our experiences we recommend to start early with first auditing processes as well as repetition auditing processes. As a result you can avoid time pressure and the auditing process can be planned parallel to your core business.

Who is Obligated to Auditing Processes?

All non SMEs are obligated to auditing processes. Your company belongs to non SMEs, if you have more than 250 employees or more than 50 million annual turnovers. Important: If you belong to a business group or a majority shareholding by a larger company, the benchmark values for this group apply.

The obligation to perform an audit persists every four years. This means, that the date of your last audit is the decisive criteria for all audit obligated companies.
